 Chapter 305: The one who makes a mistake should accept the punishment

"Ah Heng, don't say such inauspicious words." Chu Zhiwen also spoke up.


Chu An, however, understood his meaning. Looking at Chu Heng who had been rational from start to finish, he felt a bit inferior. No wonder he had taken the imperial examination many times without success, his way of thinking was indeed restricted.


"Dad, what Ah Heng said is correct. Although we all know that his knowledge is definitely sufficient, the situations from the previous two times might not necessarily happen a third time." Although it sounded ominous, Chu An understood Chu Heng's intention. He was willing to help and to be honest, if he hadn't spoken up, would Chu Heng have allowed today's matter to end with him suffering grievances in his own way?


He found it unlikely. So, it was better for him to be the one to awaken his father, at least saving face for him.


"Ah Heng will pass the imperial examination, and as you said, Dad, the Cao family will surely regret it plenty. We won't have any worries at that time." Although it was an external family, Chu An had never been close to them. He had seen through the true nature of the Cao family since he was young. To him, the in-laws who only wanted to take advantage without giving anything were just like ordinary relatives he had to interact with.


Therefore, from beginning to end, Chu An remained calm. "But if he fails, the first person to come forward and mock Ah Heng will be my mother-in-law."


"You know what kind of person my mother-in-law is, Dad. You should understand better than I do."


Chu Yonghua's face twitched and his eyebrows furrowed slightly. He also didn't like Xu Shi's personality. But being a man, with a bit of male chauvinism, even if he didn't like Xu Shi, he never thought of quibbling with a woman. Usually, he avoided Xu Shi as much as possible and barely interacted with her.


But privately, Xu Shi occasionally took advantage of being an old wife. Although he knew, seeing his wife not say anything, he thought it was just ordinary interaction and didn't pay much attention.


"So, Ah Heng, how do you plan to handle this matter?" Chu Yonghua, who still valued Chu Heng's position, decided to directly ask him since he couldn't understand.


Chu Heng replied, "Uncle, your idea is not wrong but it leaves potential troubles for yourself."


"Since it's troublesome, just cut it off completely. Why give the other party a chance to choose?" Chu Heng was not polite at all, showing indifference towards the Cao family.


"I heard that the Cao family's wife often comes to visit Uncle's wife."


"Every time she comes home, she takes away quite a few things."


"I don't know if Uncle has considered whether this is the Cao family's wife secretly taking our dowry in advance?"


"Ah?" Chu Yonghua was a bit dumbfounded. He hadn't even realized what it meant to take away many things from his wife's hands.


Could it be that when Xu Shi came over on weekdays, she wasn't just talking to his wife?


Chu Yonghua frowned, looking at Chu An.


Chu An nodded to his dad but as it was a foolish thing done by his own mother, he felt a bit embarrassed to say it in front of Chu Liushi and others. He knew that his mother cared about her face and losing face in front of his third aunt was more uncomfortable than scolding her.


After all, it was his own mother and Chu An secretly wanted to protect her this time.


"Uncle, my suggestion is simple. Either Xu Shi personally comes to apologize and the Cao family, within their clan, deals with her according to the rules or the Cao family must send a daughter to our Chu family as compensation for the benefits Xu Shi has taken from us over the years."
